So once my tank is stable and ready for corals do I need to add just a few at a time like with fish or can I add a bunch at once?

Yes.

 

[tbrown]

It's always better to add a few at a time but all of us go overboard and add 25+ at a time sometimes.

 

[Calmwaters]

Yes.

So which is it? Add a few or a bunch?

They are kind of hard to resist with so many options...

First of all, where are you getting the money to buy a bunch at a time, are you a drug dealer? Fish are added that way for the bacteria to increase to meet the biologic load. I don’t believe that is the case with coral.

LOL I might be getting some inheritance money from my moms estate she knew how much I love my aquariumsand how much I always wanted to try saltwater so it seems fitting to honor her this way. Not a huge amount but enough I could treat myself a little bit.

So in other words you are in tight with the Mexican cartels?

Looking at @kevgib67 and @tbrown tanks asking how they did it is a step in the right direction.
Harder to go overboard loading up on fish than corals.
Different requirements for both and different risks/rewards/issues.

You guys sure make work better!!

Yes I think so but I can speak it as well.

 

[00W]

Yes I think so but I can speak it as well.

Yep me too.
Just thinking he might be the head of the cartel after all.

 

[Calmwaters]

Yep me too.

Maybe we should start calling him Don Kevin...

Your tank needs to be stable first. Coral will die frequently in new tanks.

I know I'm not planning on getting them until it's stable just thinking ahead.
